Another great podcast, it made the lunchtime dog walk more enjoyable. I managed to get 9 out of 11 for JDT’s first starting line up. Like you said, it’s been quite a turnover of players, even since last July!

I’m glad it wasn’t just me who remembered that post. I searched for it after my post and it has disappeared. Maybe the poster accidentally deleted it with their sixth finger?

It just shows how mental the summer transfer thread was earlier this year. I remember a poster suggesting we try and sign 17 year old Warren Zaire-Emery on loan from PSG. He’s now been called up to the France senior squad 😂

Living in Cottam this is a big game for me. That 4-1 defeat last season has been erased from my memory. Let’s just hope that we turn up and put in a good performance. 2-1 Rovers Dolan, Szmodics and Evans on the scoresheet.

He won a penalty for Villarreal and they missed it 😂

What a relief!

RIP 💙

A few opinions on Dack this season from Sunderland fans. Although it was sad to see him leave, it’s clear JDT & GB were right to let him go.

Yes, I think you’re right 👍🏻

If we’re going down the development route, we should be playing Patrick Gamble on Friday. Try and keep the full-backs as Pickering and Brittain and we might have a chance.

Great effort from the lads, was a tough watch after the sending off 😂

Oh ffs

Get in!

Scott clearly isn’t a ball playing defender. I think sometimes he’s so concerned about trying to play out from the back, that his defending has regressed. Scott would fit right into a team like Rotherham, nothing fancy, just defend and get rid.

Just need to kill this game off, I still don’t feel comfortable, even with a two goal lead 😂

COYB

Leonard’s chance was similar to the one against Swansea. Gets in the right position and just needs to hit the target. But he somehow manages to not even test the keeper. The squad is young and they’re going to make mistakes over the season. Hopefully it will make them into better players and we can benefit from them in the long run (Shit, I sound like Waggot).

Because he’s a moron.

Brittain crossed it and Gallagher turned his back with his arm out. Hit the arm and should have been a penalty. If VAR was in use then it would have been given.

Was expecting a thrashing tonight. The young lads did us proud, yet again we are so wasteful in front of goal.

I’m looking forward to this tomorrow, managed to get tomorrow and Thursday off work 😀 I’m not expecting much from the game. I feel the same as I did before the West Ham match, so here’s hoping for the same result. I just hope we don’t see Sterling or Mudryk ripping someone like Jake Batty apart. Would be good experience for the lad but I don’t think it would do much for his confidence. It will be a £1bn squad versus a bunch of academy players. As long as we give it our all I will be happy.

Telalovic and Gilsenan starting for the U21’s tonight. Looks like they won’t be in the travelling squad to Chelsea.
